Hello,

So I removed the post “title” of my current post type “report” and I want to use the “date” field as the post title, right now since the title is missing after saving all the reports are titled “Auto Draft” any ideas how can I accomplish this?

Thank you!

Hi @onyx808

It looks like you have set the ‘save_format’ of your date picker field to ‘ddmmyy’. Is this correct?

If so, I highly encourage you to change it back to ‘yymmdd’ so that you can use it to better query the DB.

This aside, You can format the date following the code example on this tutorial:
